English to Spanish: Cómo mantener saludables los dientes de sus hijos en el hogar General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical: Dentistry
Source text - English Keeping your child’s teeth healthy at home
Healthy teeth make for healthy smiles. That’s why the Minnesota Dental Association and volunteer dentists teamed up to provide the dental care your child received today. It’s our way of making a healthy difference in the lives of kids. Here are a few things you can do at home to help your child maintain healthy teeth:
Brush. Make sure your child brushes after every meal and before bedtime. Brushing helps remove bacteria, which forms plaque and causes cavities.
Floss. By the age of eight, your child should be able to floss under your supervision. Flossing is important after brushing because it removes plaque where a toothbrush can’t reach.
Eat right. Healthy kids and healthy teeth need a balanced diet. Make sure your child eats a variety of nutritious foods. Milk is especially important for growing children to build strong bones and teeth. When you give your child a snack, avoid candy and other sweet treats. Substitute fruit, raisins, cheese or nuts when your child wants a snack. In addition to milk, make sure your child drinks lots of water. The fluoride in water helps protect your child’s teeth against tooth decay.
Translation - Spanish Los dientes sanos son sinónimo de sonrisas sanas. Es por eso que la Asociación Dental de Minnesota y un grupo de dentistas voluntarios unieron esfuerzos para proveer la atención dental que su hijo recibió hoy. Esta es nuestra manera de marcar una diferencia saludable en la vida de los niños. A continuación le damos algunos consejos que puede seguir en casa para ayudar a que su hijo mantenga los dientes sanos:
Cepille sus dientes. Asegúrese de que su hijo se cepille los dientes después de cada comida y antes de acostarse. Cepillarse los dientes ayuda a eliminar las bacterias que forman el sarro (placa) que produce las caries.
Use hilo dental. A los 8 años de edad, su hijo debe ser capaz de usar el hilo dental bajo su supervisión. El uso del hilo dental es importante después de cepillarse los dientes porque elimina el sarro en las áreas donde no llega el cepillo de dientes.
Coma alimentos saludables. Los niños y los dientes sanos necesitan una dieta balanceada. Asegúrese de que su hijo coma una variedad de alimentos nutritivos. La leche es especialmente importante para los niños en la etapa del crecimiento porque ayuda a formar huesos y dientes fuertes. Cuando le dé un tentempié a su hijo, evite los dulces y otras golosinas azucaradas. Cuando su hijo quiera un tentempié, substituya las golosinas por fruta, uvas pasas, queso o nueces. Además de la leche, asegúrese que su niño beba bastante agua. El flúor en el agua ayuda a proteger los dientes contra el desarrollo de caries.
